So i have been searching and everything i find are old plugins and scripts, which make me think there should be a way to do this naively in the current version, but i have had no luck finding it.

ex. I have a flag animation, bake the animation and i need to save out a sequence of .obj files, so frame 1 is 1.obj frame 2 is 2.obj etc.

how do i do this without going frame by frame to save a new obj file?

any help would be appreciated.

Hey RustyAce, not sure if you own the AE plugin 'Plexus' but if you do you can get a free obj exporter. If not I believe they are selling it for $9.99. I have not used it before but came across the site: http://aescripts.com...porter-for-c4d/ There might be another way? Surprised there is not a free plugin somewhere for this

yeah i came across that too but i noticed it was only updated last year and i was wondering if i was overlooking a built in feature of c4d r13 that maya and max both have had built in for a while. Thanks though, plus i'm in a pretty corporate environment so buying something takes much longer than it should.
also that script does not export the UVs..need those

You can bake out .c4d sequences with steadyBAKE, perhaps there is a batch converter from C4D to OBJ. Anyway:

Easier would be to bake an MDD sequence. There are MDD export/import plugins for both Cinema and Maya.

Go fish!

i need to save out a sequence of .obj files

Riptide Pro does just that.
